Biomedical sciences is the study of set of applied sciences that covers the wide range of topics where as how cells, organs and system function in the human body; an exciting and dynamic area that is highly relevant to the understanding and treatment of human diseases or in other way we can also state it as applying portions of natural science or basic science, or both to develop knowledge, interventions, technology that are of use in health care or Public health. It also holds disciplines such as medical microbiology, Clinical immunovirology, clinical epidemiology, genetic epidemiology and biomedical engineering are medical sciences. In this, Biomedical scientists are the professionals qualified to work unsupervised within the pathology department of a hospital dealing with biochemistry, haematology, immunology, microbiology, histology, cytology, and transfusion services. This Biomedical science also anchors the Biomedical engineering, or bioengineering, which is the application of engineering principles to the fields of biology and Public health care. Bioengineers work with doctors, therapists and researchers to develop a new variety of systems, equipment and devices in order to solve clinical problems.

Bioinformatics:

An interdisciplinary field of science that develops schemes/methods and software tools for understanding and utilizing biological data for health care. Bioinformatics as an applied field combines computer science knowledge, statistics and engineering to analyze and interpret the biological data. Bioinformatics is used in silico analyses of biological queries using mathematical and statistical techniques and has become an important part of many areas of biology in a short span.

Eg: In experimental molecular biology: Such as image and signal processing bioinformatics allow extraction of useful results from bulk amounts of raw data;

In genetics and genomics: Aids in sequencing and annotating genomes and observing the mutations in them, etc.

Computational biology is entirely different from biological computation which is a sub-branch of computer science and computer engineering applying biology and bioengineering to build computers, but it is similar to bioinformatics, that is an interdisciplinary science using computers to store and process the entire biological data. Computational biology involves the enlargement and application of data-analytical and theoretical methods, mathematical and statistical modeling and computational simulation practices to the study of biological, behavioral, and social systems. The division is broadly defined and includes the foundations in computer science, applied mathematics, ecology, animation, statistics, biochemistry, biophysics, chemistry, molecular biology, evolution, genetics, genomics, anatomy, neuroscience and visualization.

It is more precisely defined as a restraint focusing on the study of anatomical shape and form at the visible or gross anatomical scale of morphology. It involves the improvement and application of computational, mathematical and data-analytical means for sculpting and simulation of biological structures. The field is broadly known to include foundations in anatomy, applied and pure mathematics, machine learning, computational mechanics and science, medical and clinical imaging, neuroscience, physics, probabilities and statistics; it also has strong correlations with fluid and geometric mechanics. It closely focuses on the anatomical structures that are being imaged, rather than medical imaging devices. It is similar in force to the account of Computational linguistics, which is a discipline that points out on the linguistic structures rather than the sensor performing as the transmission or the so called communication mediums. Due to the abundance of dense 3D measurements by the use of technologies such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI),
Computational anatomy has emerged as a subdivision of medical imaging and bioengineering for extracting anatomical synchronize systems at the morphome scale in 3D.

Life sciences comprise of the study of living organisms such as microorganisms, plants, animals, human beings etc. and it is related to considerations like bioethics as well. It differs from the basic biology which is the major centerpiece of the life sciences; technical advancements like molecular and clinical biology and biotechnology have led a burgeoning of specializations and interdisciplinary fields. It firstly includes the biology and its branches such as Agriculture; Anatomy; Biochemistry; Bioengineering; Biolinguistics; Biomechanics; Biomedical research; Biophysics; Biotechnology; Botany; Cell biology; Developmental biology; Ecology; Entomology; Epidemiology; Ethology; Evolutionary biology; Genetics; Hematology (also known as Haematology); Marine biology (or Biological oceanography); Microbiology; Molecular biology; Mycology; Neurobiology; Paleontology; Pathology; Physiology; Phytopathology; Population biology; Sociobiology; Structural biology; Systems biology; Toxicology; Zoology.
